American Gold Eagle coins were first issued by the United States Mint in 1986. The coins had bullion and proof options that year, but only the bullion coins had the fractional weights of ½ oz, ¼ oz, and 1/10 oz available that year. The gold bullion coinage is a stunning investment-grade piece with purity and weight backed by the US government.

All ½ oz American Gold Eagle Coins in this listing are Mint State 70 options certified by the NGC or PCGS. Coins with a Mint State 70 certification feature full, original mint luster with a complete lack of flaws. Please note that some of these coins may have the NGC’s alternative NGCX grading scale from 1-10, with 10 representing a perfect coin similar to the MS70 grade. You can learn more about the NGCX grading scale on the NGC website.

The ½ oz Gold Eagles available to you here today come from random years of issue with random labels possible from either the NGC or PCGS. The ½ oz coin has been issued from 1986 to present. Possible labels include Early Release/First Strike, which indicates coins were received by the grading houses within the first 30 days of their initial release date.

JM Bullion cannot guarantee you a particular year of issue for the ½ oz American Gold Eagle you receive. We also cannot guarantee you a label within the slab. All coins are guaranteed to feature a Mint State 70 certification and will be chosen from our warehouse based upon availability when your order is processed for shipping.

On the obverse of all American Gold Eagle coins, you’ll find the image of Liberty. This beautiful depiction of Liberty was created in 1907 by Augustus Saint-Gaudens to feature on the $20 Gold Double Eagle.

The reverse of ½ oz Gold Eagle coins features a family of bald eagles in their nest. Created in 1986 by Miley Busiek, it features only on the Gold Eagles. Alternatively, coins issued from mid-2021 onward have Jennie Norris’ modern image of the head of the American bald eagle.
